What is going on with Tom Cruise’s strange middle tooth?

Tom Cruise has many reasons to show off his confident, 100 mega-watt smile: he’s handsome, he’s a great actor, and he does his own stunts at age 61.

This A-list Hollywood movie star is one of the biggest stars in film. He is starring in the upcoming movie, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, having just completed what is being called the most dangerous stunt ever done in a film.

However, despite all of these amazing accomplishments, some people just can’t get over Cruise’s middle tooth. In fact, Tom Cruise is known for his attractive, toothy grin. But it’s clear that he has had some dental work because of imperfections. So, what’s going on with Tom Cruise’s strange middle tooth?

While he has a great set of pearly white teeth, Cruise has one tooth that’s out of place, so not all of his teeth seem like they are lined up symmetrically with the center of his face.

Tom Cruise definitely takes care of his teeth, as looking good is an important characteristic for a leading man. In fact, when he was 40 years old, following his divorce from Nicole Kidman, Cruise wore braces to fix an overbite and misaligned teeth.

He showed off a new, fixed smile on the red carpet at the 2002 premiere of Minority Report.

But Tom Cruise is willing to look less than perfect. While he cares about looking good, he cares about acting even more.

When Cruise played the character Steve Randle in 1983’s The Outsiders, he voluntarily removed the cap from a front tooth for the role. That tooth was chipped by a flying hockey puck.

Tom Cruise has never publicly stated exactly what dental work he’s had done, but dentists speculate that, in addition to his braces, Cruise got porcelain veneers and whitening treatments.

At 5 feet 7 inches in height, Cruise has shown the world that he can be a successful leading man due to his great acting skills and his confidence. And it’s his confidence that makes his winning smile so charming.
